I went to a lecture given by a professor teaching history at Eureka College, which is the college attended by Ronald Regan. The professor informed those that attended that this book was a work of fiction. That it served as interesting story but this was a book of opinions and to take the information with a grain of salt. I did enjoy the book however.

I love history books however this one just didn't keep my interest. Course now I even wonder if in fact it is a history book and not just a folk lore of fiction. They are now saying there are no documents to back that quilts were used in the underground railroad!
